White-tailed deer populations have grown tremendously throughout the Eastern U.S. during the past several years. This population growth, in combination with continued development of urban and suburban areas, has created an environment where humans and white-tailed deer coexist and often conflict. The workshop will cover a variety of topics relating to deer behavior and biology, management options, policy considerations, and social concerns.

This workshop is designed to better equip park managers, wildlife biologists, foresters, landowners, community leaders, real estate appraisers and others to make informed decisions about deer management in their parks and communities.

The fee for this course is $195, which includes lunch, refreshment breaks, and instructional materials. There is a $50 discount for fees paid by check or credit card and postmarked by February 27, 2007. Preregistration must be accompanied by check, purchase order, or credit card number to guarantee a place in the course. Limited seating is available. The Georgia Center will charge a $50 processing fee for a second course transfer, if applicable.
